Here is a bit of advice found in the
Mortified News which communities
in,general would do we'll to remem.
ber:.
Every person is in duty bound to
contribute, according to his ability of
his means and time, to the public well
fare. Don't ask your neighbor to do
something for the town you would
not Willingly do yourself. 1t there
is any movement on foot for the ad-
vancement of the town, see that you
get to the trout and show your will
ingness to shoulder your share, before
you criticIse- your neighbors. No
town can grow and prosper without
the united effort Of its citizens. You
can't afford TO hang back when some
enterprise is being pushed-unless
there is matter of principle involved
and it is not often a matter arises that
will conflict with mans idea OF
,ainciple and duty. ina community.
Because your neighboT suggests q
public enterprise, don't be stubborn
and oppose it because Of that fact;
if his method can be improved, say
40. and unite heartily in the work.
United enterprise wins, divided conn
ellis never accomplish anything.

Often times we have heard people
in this country say that they did not
take their county paper because they
could not read English sufficiently
we'll to understand its contents. This
10 doubt is true in many cases, but
we have also heard men of foreign
birth say that they learned more of
the English language from their coun.
ty papers than from any other one
source, for the reason that the mat
ter therein contained was frequently
something Of which they had heard
before, and therefore could under
standingly get at the facts.-Chippe-

The Litchfield Review has been en-.
larged to six pages to give more room
for advertising space and reading
matter. The Review is among the
newsiest Of our exchanges. and with
out intending any insinuatlon we can
safely assert that a more profitable
way to make room for reading matter
and advertising would be to in
crease its advertising rates to what
they are worth. Business men and
Eeaders would reap the same benefit
and the publishers would save the
extra expense of the enlargement.
En,arging is an error too commonly
fallen into by publishers of country
newspapers.
